Bio
Hi there!
I'm a 26 year old mom to two wonderful[although extremely hyper and active] kids. When I'm not home with them, I can be found at either one of my two jobs. I work in the morning as a truck unloader/stocker at a big box retail store. Then in the evenings I work at a retirement home as a server in the dining room and have some lovely chats each night with the residents. :)
When I've got some free time[what's that?] I enjoy reading Fantasy/Sci-fi, writing, roleplaying, and video games. I also am a huge fan of anime. <3

...See more I have this massive fear of making phone calls. Like I can call my significant other or my grandmother, but everyone else it just freaks me out. Even calling off for work takes a lot of effort on my part to keep it together so I don't wind up with a no call no show. Calling to make appointments is even worse. I haven't seen a doctor in over three years despite needing too. Need to see a dentist as well. But making those phone calls just make me extremely panicky. I'll dial the number, and hang up after the first ring. I know I need to make these phone calls but I just can't get past the first ring before hanging up. :( I know it's incredibly stupid to be afraid of making phone calls.

...See more Hi! I'm new to the site and found it via social media. I'm a 26 year old girl, two children[ages 5 and almost 4], engaged, and work two jobs. Needless to say I'm a busy person. My significant other has depression so I try my hardest to be his "rock" but it's hard when I've got my own depression to try and handle as well. What makes it even harder is I've been told by him and another mutual friend of ours that also has depression that there's no way I understand depression. Why? Because I don't deal with it the way they do[hide in the bedroom, refuse to be social, etc.]. I've been considering finding a therapist, but I'm so afraid of being judged by the therapist because I don't hide from life, I don't refuse to be social. :( I just know that our kids need at least one of us to be functioning and "with-it" so I force myself to keep going and just cry myself to sleep at night after everyone has gone to bed as I try to handle the thoughts of being a failure and how I'm of no use to anyone alone, among other not so nice thoughts. Heh. I'm rambling. Anyways. Yeah. So I'm new and life massively sucks at times.
